Applicants cannot differentiate the quality in advice given while some believe the UKBA are able to give legal advice over the phone

Some applicants listen to family and friends, and then decide to do the application themselves; to save money but then complicates their matter and eventually look for Solicitor that will now cost them more than they could have spent originally

Applicants continue to stay illegally out of fear without having the confidence to speak to a Lawyer that could assist them

Applicants are not sure if their discussion will be confidential hence they don’t trust their advisers

Immigration applicants do not know how to assess the customer service of their chosen Solicitors as it’s known that the speed a Solicitor use to responds to your initial enquiry will be a guide on how you will be dealt with if instructed
